I never realised how few street scenes I take until Carmi's streetscape theme came up this week. Here are some from my archive dating back into the 1980s in Stavanger.

This was taken on a Sunday in the old part of the town. In contrast a shopping street is much busier on a weekday.

As part of her German course at Birmingham University my daughter spent a year at Freiburg University in Germany. We visited the city later, took some photos and asked her 'Wo ist das?'

But when you live in a village as small as ours, this is what you may see in Spring.

| Forest Lane, Kirklevington - April 2010 |
Looking down the lane instead - it's still empty.

These last two pictures have cheered me up a bit as it has been wet and windy all week.
